Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

PG, I refer to these as "angels" - I wouldn't be at all surprised if this effect was what people thought were gods/supernatural beings a few centuries ago! They are beautiful, although I haven't seen one myself yet this year - fab photos - thanks Very Happy

PG's , Photos are actually taken from the film Star Trek 4, where 5 members of the "away team" were beamed up from the piste because they didn't have the right gear on.

ise's, 1st shot is from "ET" where the ship comes back to rescue the little fella at the end. His second shot is just a dirty lense.

Close! But no fiction involved here. In fact a Goa'uld mothership is just out of shot, but fortunately Thor of the Asgards was in orbit and just managed to beam up Jaffa Antagon'Ise before the new System Lord Goa'uldsmith was able to take him out.

(Never watched Stargate in my life...)

Ise... love the shot - just looked a bit... I don't know... blue? I ran it through a photoshop filter... not sure if I like it better that way or not really. I think I prefer your original to be honest now I see them together-ish... a bit more ethereal perhaps... Madeye-Smiley

PG, I started watching Stargate a few yrs ago and loved it, but then lost touch. Whatever happened to the dark haired english bird? There was simmering sexuality present between her and the lead fellow.

carled, I've re-worked versions of the other image actually, and the silhouette is one of a series that'll possibly go in the brochure for those guys.

It's hard to know what's best when you work on any image, the guys knocking out photoshop books pick good sample shots, real ones are hard Very Happy I can spend ages on a shot and wonder if it was as good as the original Very Happy

I've not worked on the other one much, it's a great snap' but not much of a "photograph", but snap's are often more fun.

Frosty the Snowman, Claudia Black? She's coming back for series 10... She's Australian though, so I'm not sure if it's her you mean...? The other main lady character is a blonde, from memory?

Yeah, I know what you mean ise. I always struggle with snow/sun pics... sometimes you're lucky and sometimes it's a steaming heap of doggy doo. I like the silhouette one - good balance between the highlight and shadow. Would be a bug to try and play around with the histogram in that one. PG would be the master at the art with his skills, I'd have thought! Mind you, all you mountain-based chaps have an unfair advantage on the sun/snow/sky battlefield!

I dunno, she looks a bit mardy* to me... I'd have to show her the short-trunked pink elephant trick to crack a smile, I reckon...

*translators note: "mardy" - leicester expression for "a tad grouchy" also known as "got a right bag on"
